"The course aims :
- To enable students to Describe rational and combinatorial methods of protein engineering
- To train students to critically analyse data and conclusions from the primary literature
- To train students to formulate an original research plan for a specific protein engineering study and describe the advantages and limitations of the proposed research
- To enable students to converse at an advanced level about current key topics of investigation in the field of protein engineering"
